I wanted to report back on what has come of my directions from Maureen

the Homoepath. She said two things: 1) The whole family under the roof

must be on a restricted diet meant to alkalize the body (no whites, no

excessive sugars including a lot of fruits, little or no vinegar,

little or no caffeine, no artificial sugars or " spices " aka MSG, plus

homeopathic supplements) for a total of six months from the time we

stopped feeling the invisible mite activity (we installed plug in

devices that send high frequencies that disturb rats etc, plus we got

rid of our neighbor's bird nests). (2) take baths every three days

with a quarter cup of epsom salt, ten drops of lavender oil, five

drops of tea tree oil in as hot of water as you can stand. (3) plus

constant moderate cleaning of the environment.

With all this, I think we have finally gotten somewhere. My sister and

I fall off the wagon on occasion for a bite of bread pudding or a cup

of coffee, but our recent guilty pleasures have resulted in suspect

activity on the skin under tight clothes or none at all.

She also suggested that we get a small indoor trampoline to help move

the blood and lymph along. Also when my sister worried about the kid's

calcium levels in leiu of he dairy we were forgoing, she pointed out

that the bioavailability of the greens that we were finally getting

into their diet were worth a lot more than any calcium obtained from

dairy (a myth created and preserved by the dairy industry and lobby).

Plus we have a sugar free (no artificial sugars) liquid multivitamin

with stevia.

As for things coming off our skin.. we had a few black specks hairy

and vile looking under the microscope until we got serious about our

diet. We also had on and off for a longer period: sand like granuals,

and i found things that looked like see through fat worms with two

nubs on one end. all this was visible under a 40x microscope from

walmart for under 20 bucks. The entemologist said there were no bug

parts in what i showed her (although she never saw the fat worm

looking thing).

I cant keep up with all the activity on this forum so if you come up

with anything else in your comparison of notes, or questions for me

directly please consider including me at my email address. There are

certainly more variables than those i have listed here.

[Guest guest]

To all I am going to point this out because it bothers me. These devices that send high frequencies that disturb rats ect. Especially if you live in an apt complex thier may be people like my self who have little furries that are pets. These devices may injure/ drive some ones little pet to the point of a heart attack because the animal can't get away from such a noise. It amazes me that manufactures would make these devices with out thinking about how it could hurt a hamster, guinie pig, pet rats ect. I know if some one did that and I lost my ratties I would flip out. Careful to be mindful of approaches you use on pests. You never know if you may case damage to some one else. I have mites too, but if I lost my babies I don't even know if I could keep fighting. I am so tiered already that loss is not something I need right now. They are part

of my fight.

Yea that would suck for a rat owner, I wonder if those things harm

birds. My grandpas bird is no longer sick I told him to add some drops

of acv and his left eye has now opened up and now we can't get that damn

bird to shut up. Haha.

You ever see the abyss were that guy had a pet white rat haha. He put

the rat in a zip lock with air because the submarine was catching water,

thought it was the funniest shh I saw. When ever I read your post I

think of that. Haha

Don't think im a rat hater, I've had a ferret and a iguana that used to

fight each other for grapes. Haha

And I've had a chinchilla named boba and hamsters throughout my

childhood, all passed from old age or sickness. I love all animals, but

starting to hate pigeons! Haha

[Guest guest]

,

Congratulations on making progress against your mite invasion.

I've done a lot of experimenting and observation with diet and how it

affects the bug problem. My acupuncturist gave me similar dietary

advice as your homeopath, but over time I found the advice, while good

for overall health, was off-base for bug control. I found that it

doesn't matter if the food is whole food or refined " white " food, but

that the problem items for me are: gluten (from any wheat or barley

products, and oats to a lesser extent), legumes (beans, lentils,

peanuts, etc), oils, seeds, and soy sauce. I can drink coffee with no

problem, and I can have some sugar. So, I would say if you're going

to fall off the wagon, better to do it with coffee and sugar than with

bread. It's good to have a wholesome diet, but getting rid of the

bugs or putting them into remission is not as simple as avoiding junk

food, although avoiding junk food is a good first step because there

are so many ingredients in junk food that can cause the skin to act up.

I'm slowly making progress and continuing to adjust my diet to keep

the bugs from coming back. I've also started using the esp botanicals

products a couple of weeks ago, and that seems to be helping my skin

get back to normal faster. I'm planning on using it for 6-8 months.
